1. Abstract

This assignment explores the role of qualitative research to understand the resources of efforts, strategic approaches and modern methods in order to increase productivity. Productivity is in fact the relationship between efforts and assigned tasks (inputs) and results (outputs). This particular assignment justifies that the qualitative research approach is the essential domain in formulating modern strategies to achieve excellence in organisational productivity. In other words, modern organisations need to identify some intelligent steps.
